You see a man is made upright by his good deeds and not simply by having faith.
Was not even Rahab the prostitute made upright for her good deeds, in entertaining the scouts and sending them off by a different road?

Who among you is wise and intelligent? Let him show by his noble living that his good deeds are done in humility, which wisdom prompts.
However, the wisdom that comes from above is first of all pure, then peace-loving, gentle, willing to yield, full of compassion and good deeds, and without a trace of partiality or hypocrisy.
